Adding a conditional variable - is it possible in version 7.1?

New Here ,
Mar 26, 2008 Mar 26, 2008
Have a situation where I need to add a variable to a book that contains different conditional text for two products (Product A and Product B ).

This will be for Product C, and should be added everywhere Product A exists, and be conditional for Product C only. How can I make the variable conditional for Product C? I would like to do it in one pass, if possible.

Thanks!

FM can search for variables or conditions.

You can apply conditions to found items by first using the Copy
Special function to pick up a conditional setting from somewhere in
your document and use the "By Pasting" option in the Find & Change to
automatically apply this conditional when a certain item is found.

If you simply copy a variable with a condition already applied and
then use the "By Pasting" option, then both the variable and condition
will be inserted.

If you want to add a new variable beside an existing one, look for the
old one and replace with the old one + new one.

Thank you for your suggestion. The scope of this particular project will end up being much larger than what we originally thought, but I'm sure I will use your suggestions in other projects.
